kindly referred to as Freedom The business tycoon Jacob Caesar, often known as Cheddar, views this as a critical first step in realizing Ghana’s Eastern and Western Corridors’ potential to increase global trade.

Bediako described his idea in an interview with Kojo Marfo on Abusua 96.5 FM in Kumasi. He drew inspiration for the proposal from his observations of other nations expanding their marine transit routes inland.

He cited Dubai’s transition from a desert to a coastal city as an illustration of what was possible.

“Why are we still transporting individual containers by road when the sea could offer a faster and more efficient means?” Bediako questioned.

He highlighted the inefficiencies of the current system, where goods transported by road often arrive damaged or spoiled after the six-hour journey from Tema Harbour to Kumasi.

“I want to open up the East and Western Corridor infrastructure,” Bediako emphasized.

“I want to build power stations, energy stations, connect the gas, create industries, and bring technology.”

Calling for a shift towards value addition and local manufacturing, Bediako challenged Ghana to produce its own electronic gadgets using domestic resources, such as lithium and plastics.

As part of his nationwide tour dubbed a listening tour, Bediako is spending five days in the Ashanti Region to engage with ordinary Ghanaians and incorporate their visions and aspirations into his manifesto for the upcoming national election in December.
